TRANSCRIPTION CENTER
Having
a pool of information reporting expertise makes a school a natural
candidate to establish a transcription center. A transcription center
(or agency) within a school is a separate business unit and needs
to run as an independent operation. Like any business, there must
be a clear understanding of target market, the service required,
the market price for the service, the competition and many other
factors.
In
summary, there must be a business plan. Without a plan you will
have no idea whether or not a transcription center is potentially
money-making or just another drain on scarce and valuable resources.
Don't start a center just because it seems like a good idea. Check
and double check all the implications and ramifications.
